One of my minor superpowers is noticing when things are just a little ... off. Loose screws, crooked pictures, missing bolts—they jump out at me, and once I notice them, I can’t walk away. I have to fix them immediately, if not sooner. My wife used to think it was weird, but since buying a house she’s come around, and now regards it as a blessing. She doesn’t have to worry about stuff breaking around here, because she knows it’ll get fixed before she can even mention it.

You probably know someone like that, too (or you’re one yourself). And buying gifts for folks like us can be a challenge, because we already have all the tools. It’s a compulsion, really: Every DIY repair is an opportunity to research and acquire new toys. But if you need a quick gift for a DIYer like that, don’t worry—Prime Day has a deal for you. This multitool pen from RAK is perfect for the handy people, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts in your life, and it’s 31% off for Prime Day.

Aside from being a pen, this tool is also:

• A flashlight

• A screwdriver

• A level

• A ruler

• A bottle opener (you’d be surprised how often this comes in handy)

What I like about it is that I can throw it in my bag and it works just as a pen, so I use it every day regardless—but when something needs a quick adjustment, or if I’ve forgotten to bring a specific tool with me when I’m doing a project, I can use this instead of trekking back to retrieve what I forgot. It’s a perfect gift for anyone who likes to tinker or do work around the house—and at 31% off for Prime Day, you can get one for yourself, too.
